Shas chairman Aryeh Deri informed Likud chairman Binyamin Netanyahu yesterday (Sunday) that he intends to serve as finance minister in the next government, which should be sworn in in the coming weeks. Miara will curse him.
Last February, Deri was sentenced at the Jerusalem Magistrate's Court, following the tax offense case in which he was convicted, to 12 months of suspended imprisonment for three years, and to pay a fine of NIS 180,000.
Deri was convicted of not reporting to the tax authorities the full amount he received from the sale of an apartment in Jerusalem to his brother Shlomo Deri.
In addition, Deri was convicted of not reporting income he received from the American finance company "Green Ocean", which was subject to taxes of about half a million shekels.

As part of the sentencing, a plea agreement was signed between Deri and the person who served as the ombudsman at the time, Avihai Mandelblit, according to which Deri would admit to the tax offenses, and he would be sentenced to a suspended sentence and pay a fine. In addition, Deri undertook to resign from the Knesset even before submitting the settlement to the High Court, and therefore Mandelblit agreed not to ask to determine that there is a scandal in his actions.
This, without referring to the situation in which the question will arise in the future.
Last October, a senior official at the Ministry of Justice told Wala!
Because he estimates that ombudsman Gali Beharev Miara will claim that Aryeh Deri should be impeached if he returns to the next government.
Two months ago, the chairman of the Central Elections Committee, Judge Yitzhak Amit, rejected the petition of the Movement for the Quality of Government that asked him to impeach Deri.
When rejecting the petition, the judge clarified that since the composition of the Knesset had not yet been chosen and the distribution of ministerial positions had not yet begun - "the time is not yet ripe to discuss the issue of Deri's eligibility to be appointed a minister."

Therefore, it is possible to petition the chairman of the election committee again on the grounds that now "the time has come" to discuss the issue. If Amit rejects the petition again, his decision can be appealed to the Supreme Court. Another option is to file a petition with the High Court on the reasonableness of Deri's appointment to the position of minister the treasure.
For example, the likelihood of an appointment as Minister of Finance for someone who has committed financial crimes.
In these two proceedings, both the ombudsman and Deri will have to submit their legal position on the issue.
The last time the ombudsman was required to present his position on the issue was in a petition to the High Court that was submitted at the beginning of the year, on various grounds, by the Movement for the Quality of Government as well as by the Movement for Governance and Democracy The state's position, as submitted to the High Court in these petitions, was that as long as Deri does not hold or seek to hold a concrete public position - the question of disgrace is only theoretical.
The then ombudsman Mandelblit further clarified in his response to the High Court that if MK Deri does not resign from the Knesset before the hearing of the criminal proceedings in his case, as he announced, then the issue of defamation will be practical and then the state will argue the merits of the matter as the legislative commandment. Thus, it seems that now the ombudsman You will be forced to give an answer on the subject, since the issue is no longer theoretical.
